The positive control used in this study was 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4-NQO) (Sigma) at concentrations of 2 and 1 μg/mL for S. typhimurium TA98 and TA100, respectively. His: histidine; DMSO: dimethylsuphoxide (negative control); H2O: water (negative control). All cultures were made in triplicate (except the solvent control where five replicates were made). The results are expressed as a mean number of revertants ± standard deviation and mutagenic index values (in parentheses). |
